[QUOTE="Roady26, post: 984678, member: 82737"] I'm clinging on to hope that EJ is keeping with Youngs to help steady the squad with all the new faces, let him get his 100 caps and then phase him out. He probably won't but I'm hoping. Thoughts post WC on Ford-Farrell? Personally I think Farrell-Manu-Joseph is our best combination in this squad at the moment. Obviously EJ has his eye on him so I wonder if he wants Dombrandt to get a bit more premiership experience and fix some 'work ons' and then bring him in for the other tests this year after the 6N. I assume he has made him mind up on Simmonds and that's that.... because Eddie. So maybe he has just decided to to get all the young back row talent thats been on his mind in and not worry much about the positions and just see how they all get on and who makes the cut moving foward. Not much pressure on him for a performance this 6N having done well at the WC so maybe he just doesn't care about having a proper 8 for this tournament and wants to test out the talent? Though if the first teamsheet goes up and I see Lawes at 6 I will completely give up guessing what EJ is up to (which I should have done a long time ago...) [/QUOTE]
